L.S. Dunes - Violet



While it can be a divisive moniker, L.S. Dunes is a recent "supergroup" of guitarist Frank Iero (My Chemical Romance), guitarist Travis Stever (Coheed and Cambria), vocalist Anthony Green (Circa Survive), bassist Tim Payne (Thursday), and drummer Tucker Rule (Thursday).
I was a fan of their debut full-length 'Past Lives' in 2022 (especially the opening track "2022" and "Bombsquad"), and am looking forward to / telling anyone not in the know about their soon to release new full-length 'Violet' on January 31st.

Mostly wanted to highlight this release because Anthony Green has been on a prolific output-resurgence the past few years, releasing a myriad of work under multiple projects/solo, including probably my favorite of the bunch with his again-collaboration with The Sound of Animals Fighting's 'Apeshit' in 2022.  All that to say -- he is my main draw to this project; I've sometimes teeter-tottered on albums/bands/solo work Green is associated with, but undeniably his voice and delivery is a unique cornerstone in multiple genres and at the least is always worth checking out.  Plus the entire band seems to have a solid chemistry that hopefully keeps the collab rolling.
